I just recently replaced that entire housing. Should be two little pins on either side of the lighter housing underneath the assembly. Use a screw driver and push the little pin in while pushing on it...you might have to work it a little. It didn't just slide out or anything. It's in there pretty good.

like a couple posts above you have to push in two little plastic clips to get it out... it is easy after you have did it... but doing it is a pain...
